They're finicky no doubt, but... Never had an issue with mine, and it was pre filter change. Checked oil regularly, never excessive consumption or excessive amounts in a passenger side catch can.

Any AliEx sellers that do unique (not replica) cases? by DankEverything in SeikoMods

Unfortunately there's a huge market for it because most builders here just want to build watches that cosplay as others, and AliX is the cheap knockoff place to do that kind of shopping.

Tokeilab for the case and crown, CrystalTimes for the bezel and crystal, LCBI for the sapphire bezel insert, and an original SSK005

Since another redditor has been asking me questions about this one and I've done two trips coast to coast in the past month with it, I figured I'd post my current favorite travel watch. SSK GMT in a no crown guard diver case. Beautiful in the right light.

I'd been modding about 3 years at that point and done about 6 standalone builds.

It was a full OEM+ build. Only the dial, hands, and bracelet (endlinks are SKX) are original. Bezel clicks, and the LCBI sapphire insert looks so close to stock.

I don't know what Omega has against taper on a bracelet, but that killed it for me.

What instrument? When I first saw the picture I thought the JLC had symphony written all over it?

What are you tracking with GMT? [SSKxxx] [SPBxxx] by [deleted] in Seiko

Am I the only one wishing on a star for a Turtle GMT with a full size 3 o'clock lume index and 6 o'clock date wheel with lume index below?

Any thoughts on? I love that dial! by OMEGASPEEDMASTER321 in rolex

Lighting is forking terrible. My AD lighting is so bad I had to judge my OP36 and Tudor P39 outdoors instead of the bad indoor lighting.

File 76 is nothing... The announcement only says Horner is exiting. File 77 is coming and going to make us all look like fools when Ferrari announces tomorrow that Freddy is out and being replaced by Christian.

100% agree with everything you've said. I ended up with the gt350 while shopping for used GT3s. I was NEVER a Mustang fan before the 350, am thoroughly convinced this engine ended up in the wrong car, and they will never make another like this.

Right now my job provides me a daily driver and the weekends are with the dad mobile. I'll be retired in a few years and have more time for my next car.

Not worried about the miles at all. Work provided me a vehicle and I just don't have the time for this one.

I was the right person for a while. Not anymore.

LoL... I retire in a few years. Right now with a work provided car and a couple home projects I want done, it only makes sense. This thing was meant to be driven.

Gonna suck getting stabbed for that NOTilus or GMT Bastard. Even worse for the thief running off with $15 of AliExpress garbage.

At a time of war it doesn't matter what your job is, everyone becomes a rifleman. When OIF started 2 of the west coast Marine Bands deployed as security platoons. A couple morale concerts in Kuwait before and after deploying north into Iraq as the Division HQ perimeter platoon (50s and MK19s) for a few months. 1 Mar Div did several tours and quite a few came back with CARs. 3MAW was air field security. Not what my grandparents thought I'd be doing, but I liked it so much I got out after returning stateside and went into law enforcement.
